Armed Services Ministry

Victims of terrorist acts committed on French territory can take advantage of numerous support provisions, some of which involve the Armed Services Ministry (Ministère des Armées) and its operators

BASIS FOR THE ACTION OF THE ARMED SERVICES MINISTRY

The code for armed services invalidity and war victims pensions (CPMIVG — Code des Pensions Militaires d’invalidité et des Victimes de Guerre) provides for pensions for victims of terrorist acts and their loved ones under the terms and conditions specified for civilian victims of war.
Direct victims of terrorism acts may take advantage of provisions under the armed services invalidity pensions and victims of war code, which applies to civilian victims of war.

ROLE OF THE ARMED SERVICES MINISTRY

The pensions branch (DRH-MD/SPRP — Service des Pensions et des Risques Professionnels du Ministère des Armées) is responsible for examining requests for armed services invalidity pensions (PMI — Pensions Militaires d’Invalidité). To avoid double compensation for the same prejudice, the examination of PMI requests is contingent on obtaining a compensation offer from the FGTI.
